This is a branch off from the other roleplay I have going on, [hider=Other rps] Something Wicked is about a decade prior to Long Live the Queen and A Cracked Wand is a few years after that one [url]http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/75737-long-live-the-queen/ooc[/url] (Closed) [url]http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/76778-something-wicked-this-way-comes/ooc[/url] [/hider] [center][img]http://www.wallpaperfo.com/thumbnails/detail/20121114/cityscapes%20night%20houses%20fantasy%20art%20digital%20art%20artwork%20medieval%20portuguese%201500x1000%20wallpaper_www.wallpaperfo.com_45.jpg[/img][/center] "Welcome to Meidiba. This is a town of opportunity. You can harness your skill sets of magic and lock picking at any open moment. You may also find yourself being the victim of a pick pocketing on a daily basis, so you might want to work on your reflexes. But have no fear, we're nowhere near a bad as some of the cities closer to the crag. They're all but foaming at the mouths, or so the stories say, we're not actually allowed to go any closer than the edge of the town. If you get caught going that far, boss man'll have your ass kicked. (Both friends decide to comment that nothing was actually covered) What? That's the true jist of it. If I didn't cover it, you'll figure it out soon 'nuff, trust me. (Friends roll eyes as they abandon) HEY WAIT!" A town of magicians, thugs, thieves, and plenty of combinations of the three. Those that are wise to business and how the world works can live quite comfortably, so long as you the right palms to grease.

We have zero idea what his actual name is due to the fact he's been referred to as the boss in some form or another for at least two decades. He's as strong as he is merciless. "He's older than sin." 2. Lady Z of the rival faction. Mischievous, seductive, and a cunning liar. Her silver tongue is almost as sharp as her steel. 3. Roy Metezul... Metzulz.....but everyone calls him Bloodthirst because of his personality and the fact no one can pronounced him name. He is in charge of a group of bandits that gets in trouble with the boss constantly. He has his own section of town and constantly trying to get power. 4. Enigma. He has a name but no one really speaks with him because he is the liaison to the dark elves, and he does business for them. The elves live in the bosses territory closest to the crag, so they pay taxes and such, mostly cause they don't really have time to worry about it. But as the boss says, don't go trying to get more than what they're already being charged cause you won't come back You are a character in this town. You are going to be joining in as things are reaching the boiling point. For most of the part, you should be a human character unless you have PMed me something with an incredible story. You post something here without me checking it that isn't human, instant denied, regardless of how good it is.

However, raw magic is seeping out of the crag and its created adverse affects on the people it touches. The people of this town for instance. You're as likely to have magic as a lock picking set. Probably have both. Magic is easy for people to use around here, though not necessarily everyone has to use it. As was said, the dark elves live closest to the crag which makes them rather sickly in stature but if they attack you with a spell, you're done for. The point of this little venture? Remember, this is the boiling point. The corruption from the magic is getting worse, it's like a sickness that sets in after awhile. We'll go more in to the symptoms once more people show up. But there just so happens to be another country full of mages that might just be the kind of breather people from this town could use- Lumoise.

Got questions about the story? Post them and I'll see what I can do.
